(1813? - 7 Mar 1889) John F. Stone, a
former resident of this village (Thorp, Clark County, Wis.), was
run over and instantly killed by a freight train while walking
along the track in the city of Eau Claire on Thursday afternoon of
last week. The accident was wholly due to the deafness of the
deceased, whose hearing was almost entirely gone. Mr. Stone was 75
years of age and leaves a widow and several children in good
circumstances. The funeral occurred at Augusta on Saturday
afternoon last and was largely attended. © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
